Becoming  shortly the first hip hop billionaire he should've release detox tracks for free, can't understand why is he making music for himself, when as a musician your first priority should be releasing as much as music for the fans as possible, not sitting on them for fucks sake.

I don't believe that to be the case at all.  In fact, I think many artists have killed their careers by following that method. I think when artists just flood the market with material, it loses its value, not on a dollar level, but in terms of keeping the listener/viewer/consumer interested in what they are doing. It is always good to leave your audience wanting a little more.

This is true but I think surpassed the "wanting more" time limit a loooong time ago. However, he is a grown man and can do what he wants in life (including not putting out anymore music). I never understood why people were trippin over Detox. There's plenty of over good music out there.

then why is he in the studio 24/7, if we are not hearing any of those tracks, or only 1-2 tracks a year, shit is ridiculous. if he want to stop putting out new music than quit posing with everyone.

Why is Dr. Dre responsible for paying grown men's bills?  People need to lose that way of thinking like the wealthiest person in the crew is accountable for making sure everyone else eats good.

I hate to say it but this is a huge issue within the black community. This kind of mentality has been around for quite some time and unfortunately, doesn't look like it's going anywhere anytime soon.

Why?  Because Nate Dogg didn't have the foresight to get this thing called life insurance.  That's not Dre's fault, even though he, Snoop and Eminem actually contributed quite a bit toward Nate's funeral expenses.

Everyone's always worried about getting the best contracts and royalties then they think everything's in order, but it's always the simple shit that they don't seem to get, then they have problems that could've been easily avoided... just like when rappers and athletes owe back taxes because their dumb asses got too excited about 4/20 being around the corner and forget that April 15th is a more important date.

Oh wait, that's Dre's fault too.

Because that's the kind of man Dr Dre is. He is one hell of a scout and knows how to maneuver around the corporate world but with that comes sacrifice. A sacrifice of morals, sympathy, kindness and where your priorities should lie. but if you were to flip it, and he did have those things, then he would never make it beyond industry 'chump change'. This is why a lot of executive board members in large corporations hire nannies and send their children off to boarding schools because chasing the green becomes more important than what counts - IE; family.

If Dre were to have a sudden change of heart and become the generous giver of the likes of a 2Pac, or a Michael Jackson, then he'd be quickly ridiculous or framed in an attempt to shut him down. This is because being at that kind of level requires a large degree of coldness and superficiality, the kind of characteristics needed to succeed and remain making money, and whatever partners, associates and others Dre has around him, or above him will not want anything to hinder their own pockets
